Description

The Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office Transition Center and Clackamas Substance Abuse Program (CSAP) have identified the need for a dedicated Peer Recovery Mentor to assist their clients upon release from the custody of the Clackamas County Jail and the transition into the CSAP treatment program. The Sheriff’s Office recognizes the value a working with Peers to assist their clients with a variety of supports, including (but not limited to) resource navigation, identifying wellness and recovery goals, addressing barriers and recovery support.

The Sheriff Office is partnering with Public Health to create and fund this position. The Sheriff Office and Public health have been working closely together through the Transition Center and Project Hope. Both agencies have identified the need for a dedicated Peer recovery mentor for the specific needs of clients at the Transition Center and the CSAP program, with the Transition Center staff having oversight responsibility.

The Term “peer recovery mentor” refers to a person who self-identifies as an individual who is, or has been the recipient of inpatient or outpatient addiction treatment services and are successfully living in recovery. Peers provide support and they act as a consumer advocate who facilitates linkage to needed services and activities. The services have been designed for peers by peers.

The peer provides the support needed to help individuals in treatment and early recovery access opportunities to strengthen their path to long-term recovery. They will assist individuals on developing a plan that included wellness and recovery goals and will encourage and motivate individuals to complete the tasks and achieve the goals laid out in the plan. Peer services are designed to be flexible and to meet the unique needs of each individual.
